The American Idol host and his squeeze chatted with a friend as they enjoyed some quality time together over the holiday weekend.

The dynamic duo are frequent visitors to the central American country, and definitely seem to appreciate its mix of sunshine and Latin flavour.

Julianne donned a simple sundress for their outing, while Ryan wore jeans, a white T-shirt and a fetching fedora hat.

Earlier she had been spotted taking her dogs for a walk as she adjusted to her surroundings after touching down.

Ryan, 37, has been dating the 24-year-old dancer since 2010, and she cannot get enough of their frequent relaxing breaks.

Over Thanksgiving jolly Ryan joked his task for Thanksgiving was to be the binman, tweeting, 'my first assignment today,' alongside a picture of him taking out the trash.

Footloose star Julianne recently admitted that she struggles to decide what clothes to wear, saying: 'I want to say I'm schizophrenic with my fashion. One day I'm feeling a certain way and I'm very feminine.

'And then the next day, I'm a little bit more edgy with leather. And some days I like to wear men's clothing.'
